A very big lie: I pretended to be German to seem more attractive to girls at universi

To be very concise, my surname is 'Schwarzkopf' and my hair is kinda blond my eyes blue. My first name is universal, it is spelled the same in most languages.

I thought
that, as I speak some German, pretending to be German would make me more attractive to girls at the university. This is why throughout my fresher year I told the biggest lie in my life to at least 10 different girls and upheld this bull**** throughout my first year at university.

The truth is, however, that my surname 'Schwarzkopf' is in fact Yiddish and the punch-line is that my father is actually Jewish. I am exactly 0% German.

Of course I encountered German people on my way to getting laid, so then I pretended to actually be from a German-speaking minority from Czech Republic, Poland and even France. At one point I had to cut the bull**** and say that I am only 50% German and was born in the UK or Switzerland etc. Well, it was horrible.

My advice to you guys is that being German doesn't get you farther than being Russian or Italian. If you wanna pretend to be something you are not, at least choose a cool nationality like a Canadian.

I chose to be Afro-Caribbean, but people saw past my lies instantly.

I'm not sure, but it might be because I'm white.
Lustig!

Ashkenazic surnames are like this; Goldberg, Mandelbaum, Wassermann, Weinglass (yes, it is literally Wineglass) or my favourite - Liebermann (lover)

Well, Kafka was Jewish so obviously not... although I could play it out like that and then take the occasion to tell them that I am in fact Jewish. Thanks, I might actually have to use that in the near future.
This reminds me of when I got over 100 matches on tinder after faking my identity. Ah, those were the days.
